AWS BNi-11 vs. SAE-AISI T5 Steel

AWS BNi-11 belongs to the nickel alloys classification, while SAE-AISI T5 steel belongs to the iron alloys. They have a modest 21% of their average alloy composition in common, which, by itself, doesn't mean much. There are 19 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (4, in this case) are not shown.

For each property being compared, the top bar is AWS BNi-11 and the bottom bar is SAE-AISI T5 steel.
